Jana’s work mainly explores the concept of time perception, memory, inter-connectivity and human condition. Her work is informed by the close relationship of everything in nature, reflected and replicated in a multitude of ways.

Although she likes to explore various media, intricate, cell-like ink drawings on Japanese paper, sometimes combined with painting is what she was mostly concentrating on for the past few years, creating a body of work under the name of Sweet Oblivion. These delicate, controlled and labour intensive drawings represent human as well as any other cells/particles found in nature and show the connection of everything around and within us.

In the recent months Jana’s work took a different turn. Still investigating the multiple subjects of nature, memory and interconnectivity, the work became a lot more intuitive and spontaneous, welcoming of accidental marks, finding signs and meanings in the unexpected.

There is a sense of urgency, an attempt to capture the memory of light, shapes, lines and textures often in many layers of paint, using various application techniques and tools.
